The announcement was posted on the NAF’s official social media accounts on Wednesday.
Prospective applicants are advised to use only the official recruitment portal, [NAF recruitment portal, https://nafrecruitment.airforce.mil.ng], for the process.
This recruitment targets Airmen and Airwomen and includes two categories: Non-Tradesmen and Women, and Tradesmen and Women. It does not include the Direct Short Service Commission (DSSC), which is a separate path for graduate officers.
The NAF states that applicants should wait for the official guidelines for the 47/2026 exercise before submitting their applications, as eligibility requirements, available trades, and other conditions may differ from those in previous recruitment rounds.
Recent BMTC exercises have generally required applicants to be Nigerian citizens by birth, single, medically and physically fit, and without criminal convictions. Applicants are also typically required to have a valid National Identification Number (NIN).
Non-trades applicants from previous exercises were generally required to be between 18 and 22 years old and to have at least five credits, including English and Mathematics, in relevant secondary school exams.
Trades applicants usually need additional qualifications, such as a National Diploma, Nigeria Certificate in Education, trade test certificate, or other recognized credentials, depending on the position.
Applicants must complete their registration through the official portal and print all documents generated after submission.
The NAF has repeatedly warned prospective recruits against paying money to individuals claiming they can facilitate applications, secure shortlisting, or guarantee recruitment.
The application process is free, and the force does not involve agents or intermediaries in recruitment.
Applicants are instructed to rely solely on information published through the official NAF recruitment portal and the force’s official channels for updates on shortlisting, aptitude tests, and interviews.
Until registration officially opens on September 3, the portal may continue to display that no exercise is ongoing.
